(a)
Interpretation:
The curved-arrow mechanism for the anionic oxyCope reaction of compound A is to be given and the stereoisomer B does not react under the same conditions-the statement is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Generally, [3, 3] sigmatropic reactions of 1, 5-diences are called as cope reactions. When the diene is having the oxygen at C3 or C4 position the sigmatropic reaction is called as oxy cope reaction. Notably, when the alkoxide fragment is involved it is referred as anionic oxy cope reaction. Moreover, the enhanced increase in
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of the product, including its stereochemistry expected from the anion oxyCope reaction of the following compound is to be given.

- Wolff-Kishner reduction of compound W gave compound A. Treatment of A with m-chloroperbenzoic acid gave B which on reduction with LiAH4 gave C. Oxidation of compound C with chromic acid gave D (C9H14O). Suggest the structures for A, B, C, and D.arrow_forwardCompound A is an alcohol that undergoes oxidation to produce compound B.Compound B is a ketone that gives positive triiodomethane reaction. Compound B isthen reacted with phenyl magnesium bromide, C6H5MgBr in the presence of aqueousacid to form compound C. Compound C has the molecular formula of C9H12O.
